It seems common that schools send out acceptances before the open house is planned. One of the professors at New Mexico sent an email a few weeks after acceptance saying that they almost had the open house prepared and USC still hadn't said anything about planning an open house until I inquired about visiting (since I live nearby).

When were you accepted? They sent an email to me on Feb 3rd about an open house weekend March 5-7. You may want to send an email asking about it if you haven't received that, as they said they had limited spots. They will still reimburse for other dates though.
